View company profile

Anvilogic's journey began in 2019, born from the collective vision of seasoned security veterans and data scientists hailing from Fortune 500 companies. These founders, Karthik Kannan and Deb Banerjee, recognized a critical gap in the cybersecurity landscape: the overwhelming complexity and resource drain faced by Security Operations Center (SOC) teams. They saw firsthand how critical data often remained trapped within on-premise security systems, hindering effective threat detection and response. The initial spark was an insight into how to liberate this data and empower security professionals. The mission was clear: to democratize threat detection and hunting, making it accessible and efficient for SOC teams struggling with hybrid environments, multi-cloud complexities, and burgeoning security data lakes, all without demanding a rip-and-replace of existing tools.

The path wasn't without its hurdles. Just as Anvilogic was poised to test its beta product with potential clients in March 2020, the global pandemic struck, forcing a sudden halt to in-person engagements and a return to the drawing board. Despite these early challenges, the team's tenacity, fueled by a deep understanding of the problems they aimed to solve, persevered. They refined their approach, focusing on an AI-based SOC platform designed to significantly lower the barrier to entry for crucial detection engineering and threat hunting skill sets. This dedication led to the development of a platform that streamlines the entire detection lifecycle, from creation and testing to tuning and deployment. Today, Anvilogic stands as a force-multiplier for security teams, offering an AI-powered, multi-data platform SIEM that enables organizations to unify their security data, automate tedious processes, and proactively defend against evolving cyber threats. Their innovative approach has garnered significant industry recognition and substantial venture capital backing, empowering them to continue shaping the future of AI in cybersecurity.
